The normal physiological response that prevents significant blood loss following vascular injury is called haemostasis.6 Familiarity with haemostasis lays the groundwork for a thorough understanding of the major disease states associated with thrombosis, such as venous thromboembolism (VTE), atherothrombosis (thrombosis triggered by plaque rupture), and cardioembolic stroke. Hemostasis

Excessive coagulation leads to the formation of a thrombus, potentially obstructing blood flow. This is a common problem, especially in hospitalised or immobilised patients. Venous thromboembolic disease, for example, is a major problem in the European Union, where it causes more than one million events or deaths every year.Excessive bleeding results when certain coagulation factors are lacking, as in patients with haemophilia. Abnormal haemostasis
Blood vessel injury triggers the following sequence: The vessel constricts to reduce blood flow Circulating platelets adhere to the vessel wall at the site of trauma Platelet activation and aggregation, coupled with an intricate series of enzymatic reactions involving coagulation proteins, produces fibrin to form a stable haemostatic plug This finely tuned process serves to maintain the integrity of the circulatory system.However, the process can go out of balance, leading to significant morbidity and mortality.

Coagulation involves a complex set of protease reactions involving roughly 30 different proteins. The final result of these reactions is to convert fibrinogen, a soluble protein, to insoluble strands of fibrin. Together with platelets, the fibrin strands form a stable blood clot. The coagulation cascade
„cell-based model“ • This model identifies membranes of cell presenting tissue factor )TF) and a surface of platelets as places of activation of specific coagulation factors. • The model supposes the model of zhree phases: initiation, amplificatopn (propagation) and the proper action of thrombin- thrombus formation. • Initiation = formation of complex TF-FVIIa which is leading to avtivation of a small amount of thrombin. • Propagation = activation of platelets by thrombin and formation of complex FIXa-FVIIIa with subsequent activation of factor Xa. • Thrombus formation = formation of prothrombinase complex anf of large amount of thrombin which is leading to formation of thrombus.

Coagulation cascade is activated when defect of vessel wall enables contact of the blood with cells with TF. Platelets membrane bound tissue factor TF activates FVII to VIIa which is leding to formation of complex TF-VIIa. The complex binding on platelets membranes activates Factor IX(a) and Factor X(a). Factor Xa converts small amount of prothrombin (Faktor II) on trombin (Factor IIa) which can activate Factor V on FVa and Factor VIII on FVIIIa. Initiationphaseofcoagulation

Propagationofcoagulation: central role forFactorXa • Factor Xa together with activated Factor V (Va) as cofactor support coagulation by thrombin formation (Factor IIa ) from prothrombin (Factor II). • Factor Xa is primary pount for propagation of the porcess; one molecule of Factor Xa catalyses formation of about 1,000 molecules of thrombin.
Final step: fibrin formation • In the final step, sequence of serin proteinases reactions which lead to formation of blood clot, thrombin will convert soluble fibrinogen to insoluble fibrin. • Thrombin also activates Factor XIII (stabilizing fibrin) which can stabilize clot by crosslinking of fibrin. • Stabilized fibrin is able to retain cellular components (red blood cells, platelets or both).
Natural inhibitorsofcoagulation • „Tissuefactorplasminogen inhibitor“ –produced by endothelialcellls. Itinhibitscomplex TF-VIIa. • Antithrombin (previously AT III) – bindsactivated vitamin K dependentcoagulationfactors (canbeactivated by heparin whichincreasesitsbindingcapacity) • „Protein Z dependentprotease inhibitor/ protein Z (PZI)“ produced by liver. ItinhibitsFXa in presence PZ and Ca++.

Venous blood Excessive stress and exercise cause changes in blood clotting. and fibrinolysis. Whenever possible, venous samples should be collected without a pressure cuff (to avoid haemoconcentration, increase of fibrinolysis, platelet release, and activation of some clotting factors. To minimize the effect of contact activation plastic or polypropylene, siliconized glass, syringes and containers should be used. Thoroughly mixing the blood with the anticoagulant by inverting the containers several time. The sample should be brought to the laboratory as soon as possible. Labeling the patient sample is very important. Sampling
Anticoagulant trisodium citrate 3.2 % in a ratio of 1 : 9. • Time of sample collection is very important factor in the interpretation of results. • Centrifugation and preparation of platelets poor plasma - 4000 rpm in a cooling centrifuge. • P.T & Factor VII kept at room temperature. • Other assays at 4oC. • Testing should preferably be completed within 2 hours of the collection.
